Learning to code is hard. You don't have to do it alone.We’ll give you an overview of the coding world, help you find the right path for your goals, and show you how to create a personal learning curriculum so you can make real progress on your coding journey.

You don’t have to be an expert to be worth reading.But you do need ideas, writing templates, feedback, a distribution strategy, and, most importantly, confidence in your own work. We’ll give you the tools and support you need to turn blogging into a regular part of your coding journey.

By the end of the challenge, you will:

Generate five ideasthat people want to read about and have them vetted and validated by other coders in the community.

You might get a million “no”s, but you only need one “yes”.We’ll give you the right tools, structure, and support system to make the journey a lot more bearable. We can’t promise you a job, but we promise to make sense of the chaos and ease your nerves.

By the end of the challenge, you will:

Design a portfolio and online profile that shows your work, your potential, and is tailored to positions you're currently seeking.

The hardest part of coding more isn’t the coding— it’s finding a system and structure that fits into your busy life. We’ll help you set goals, create a roadmap, find a schedule, and, most importantly, hold you accountable to reaching your coding goals.

Our system only allows you to be registered for one at a time and each challenge will require an investment of both time and work. Plus, you'll get the most out of #CNC2018 if you focus on one challenge at a time.

Yes! You can always email us at cnc2018@codenewbie.org with questions, concerns, or just to say hi. We’d love to hear how the challenge is going for you.
